Dunedin Region

Some of Dunedin’s top tourist attractions and events involve food.

Every year the city races confectionery down the world’s steepest street, several times a day it celebrates its beer heritage in a brewery bar, and the weekly grocery shop can be done at the iconic Dunedin Railway Station.

Dunedin’s unique and delightful cuisine goes beyond what is served on a plate. Its cheese rolls have a global fan club, the city boasts its own chocolate waterfall, and there’s an ice-cream company that can lick bad breath and sore throats.

Any foodie will be delighted with the cuisine and dining options in Dunedin. The mouth-watering meals dished up by the city’s many bars, cafes and restaurants are beautifully complimented by its many local beers and wines.

Capping off a perfect Dunedin food journey are the dining locations. From St Clair’s coastal views, to the Octagon’s exquisite heritage buildings and the panoramic views from the hillside suburbs, Dunedin has the setting covered.
